A Major Advance in MEMIR Training

Pisys is pleased to introduce Fiel Foxtrot, the latest addition to our OTS (Operations Training Simulators) product range, developed to support advanced MEMIR (Major Emergency Management Initial Response) and operational training programmes.

 

The model delivers simulation of dynamic positioning, dual well centre drilling operations, integrated marine and drilling power management, Fire & Gas systems, helideck monitoring, and structured ESD logic—enabling customers to extend scenario-based emergency response, command decision-making, and systems management training into the complex deepwater drilling environment while maintaining the consistent architecture and realism of the Pisys OTS platform.

Representing a modern deepwater, double-derrick semi-submersible drilling vessel, Foxtrot expands the Fiel fleet portfolio beyond production-focused  models in the Pisys range such as Fiel Alpha (Offshore Production Platform), Fiel Bravo (Multi-Jacket Installation), Fiel Charlie (FPSO), Fiel Delta (Jackup Rig), and Fiel Echo (Offshore Production for CROs).

 

Why Use the Fiel Foxtrot Simulator?

Modern offshore drilling vessels are among the most complex assets operating offshore. Managing emergencies on these installations requires personnel to understand the interaction between marine systems, drilling systems, power generation, and safety systems.

Fiel Foxtrot allows organisations to train personnel in a realistic and controlled simulation environment where critical decision-making can be practiced without operational risk. Find out more about the use of simulators in the Energy sector

The simulator enables teams to develop competence in:

  • Major Emergency Management (MEMIR) decision making
  • Dynamic Positioning incident response
  • Fire and Gas system management
  • Electrical power failure and blackout scenarios
  • Helideck operational safety
  • Ballast and stability management
  • Complex drilling-related emergency situations

Fiel Foxtrot has been specifically designed to support OPITO-aligned MEMIR training programmes and other emergency management exercises.

The simulator allows instructors to create dynamic, evolving emergency scenarios where participants must:

 

  • Interpret alarms and system data
  • Manage escalation of incidents
  • Coordinate response teams
  • Maintain safe operation of the installation
  • Protect personnel, environment and assets

The model supports training for roles including:

 

  • Offshore Installation Managers
  • Toolpushers
  • Marine Supervisors
  • Control Room Operators
  • Emergency Response Teams

Fiel Foxtrot represents the next generation of offshore operations training simulators.

The model combines engineering realism with intuitive graphical interfaces, allowing trainees to interact with systems in a way that closely reflects real offshore installations.

The simulator includes realistic modelling of:

  • Dynamic Positioning systems
  • 8-generator power management
  • Azimuth thruster propulsion
  • Double-derrick drilling operations
  • Firewater and deluge systems
  • Helideck monitoring systems
  • Ballast and pontoon flooding scenarios
  • Integrated Fire & Gas detection

This integrated system modelling allows training exercises to simulate cascading failures and complex emergency situations that require coordinated response across multiple disciplines.

Designed for Modern Offshore Operations

The Foxtrot simulator reflects the design of modern deepwater semi-submersible drilling vessels, including:

  • Double-derrick drilling capability
  • High-capacity power generation
  • Integrated marine and drilling systems
  • Advanced fire and gas protection
  • Helideck operations
  • Dynamic positioning station-keeping

This realism ensures that training delivered using Foxtrot closely mirrors the operational challenges faced by personnel on modern offshore drilling units.

Future-Ready Offshore Training

As offshore operations become more complex, the need for advanced simulation-based training continues to grow.

Fiel Foxtrot provides a platform that enables training organisations and operators to prepare personnel for the challenges of deepwater drilling operations, emergency management, and offshore safety leadership.

With its combination of technical realism, flexible scenario control, and immersive system modelling, Foxtrot represents a powerful tool for the next generation of offshore training.

A Fully Integrated Offshore Asset Model

Fiel Foxtrot extends the Pisys Fiel fleet of offshore installation models, which already includes:

Together, the Fiel models provide a comprehensive digital offshore environment enabling training organisations and operators to simulate a wide range of offshore installations and operational contexts.
